Cardiac Conduction & ECG basics
Heart anatomy, the cardiac conduction system, depolarization and repolarization, intrinsic rates, the ECG waveform and paper calibration.
ECG interpretation for student nurses, registered nurses & healthcare professionals
A structured, practical ECG course, from conduction basics and lead placement through arrhythmias, ischemia and clinical interpretation. Eight modules, each with a PDF lesson and a quiz.

What you'll walk away able to do
Rate, rhythm, P wave, PR interval, QRS, ST-T and QT/QTc: the same repeatable sequence every time, so you're not guessing where to start.
Sinus, atrial, junctional, AV block and ventricular patterns, told apart with confidence at the bedside or on telemetry.
12-lead, right-sided and posterior placement, and which cardiac territory each lead is actually looking at.
Two full modules of clinical interpretation practice, from straightforward to advanced, using the method you just learned.

8-module ECG program
Every module is a PDF lesson followed by a quiz.
Heart anatomy, the cardiac conduction system, depolarization and repolarization, intrinsic rates, the ECG waveform and paper calibration.
12-lead placement, right-sided and posterior leads, 3-lead and 5 or 6 electrode monitoring.
P wave, PR interval and segment, Q wave, QRS, J point, ST segment, QT interval, T and U waves, RR interval and axis: normal versus abnormal findings.
The 300 rule, the 1500 rule, and the 6-second and 10-second methods for irregular rhythms.
A step-by-step table for reading any ECG, plus a decision tree for basic cardiac rhythms.
Sinus, atrial, junctional, AV block, ventricular and paced rhythms, premature beats, bundle branch blocks, STEMI and NSTEMI, pericarditis, Brugada, WPW and early repolarisation.
Twenty full 12-lead ECGs to interpret using the Chapter 5 method.
The 53 references behind the course, including AHA, ACC and HRS guidelines and standard ECG textbooks.

Background
I’m a nurse with clinical experience in cardiology, telemetry, and cardiovascular and thoracic surgery. I built this course based on my clinical experience to help turn ECG knowledge into safer, more confident clinical practice.
How you learn
Short PDF lessons, from conduction basics to full rhythm libraries.
The same step-by-step table on every strip, so you never guess where to start.
Send your answers to Johnny and get them back corrected, with annotations on each rhythm.
